Alt+A does not work in KDE when "Czech" is one of the layouts
SUMMARY If Czech is one of the keyboard layouts, even if it's not currently active, Alt+a does not work in any program. The key combination Alt+a simply does not register. Even xev does not see this particular key combination as pressed.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
- Add Czech to your keyboard layouts
- Try to use Alt+a shortcut in any program
OBSERVED RESULT Alt+a does not register, as if nothing was pressed
EXPECTED RESULT Alt+a registers and works
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have found this discussion https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/557817-Alt-a-does-not-work-in-KDE-desktop/ and this bug report https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1189180 regarding this issue
I have also reported this issue here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454511 , but apparently this issue lies deeper.
